Exactly.

If it weren't for bad anodizers, I'd never have anodizers at all.

I can understand it though, when I first started, I had a couple of guys and we did our ano in house. Man, talk about a black art. I have never cursed so much in my entire life.

Personally, I'd rather try to transmute lead into gold.

Now, if I only knew what HES stood for and why e-mags had that problem.

Anywho, I was pretty much sold in the beggining. Everything else is icing on the cake. That said, just a last few questions, there was some discussion about fitting an ASA/foregrip...are you saying that a modern RT PRO rail should give the length necessary to place the frame and grip on? What if the ASA is a 15 degree type? And lastly, what do people typically do to protect their electros from rain and such, or is it a minor concern?

Thanks, hope to be ordering soon.

The kit comes with a VA that is already tapped to take the LPR. If you have an RTP rail, you are good to go, the kit will just bolt on and work.

If you want to use a 15 deg, you will need to send it in and let me make another hole in it to mount the LPR from.

Rain should not be a problem. I have yet to see a single electro go down from rain. I've seen several go under in a big puddle and just keep right on truckin'. You don't have anything to worry about.

BTW, HES stands for Hall Effect Sensor. Hall Effect Sensors detect magnetic fields. The EMag uses a HES and a magnet to trigger the fire cycle instead of a microswitch like most other electros. This gives a unique trigger pull that not everyone likes, it also produces a situation where the marker can bounce and/or give more than one shot per pull due to the sensitivity of the HES and the size of the magnet used. Its a very twitchy system, which is overly complex for the job (which in turn causes many tuning and performance problems that you do no get with microswitches). Its just a little over engineered.

No word back from the guy, he was interested in the black to pink one (whoever's that was). Last I heard from him he was gathering his funds.

[cough]It's not pink, it's claret... [/cough]

Sorry for the thread jack, please resume your normally scheduled programming of Mag goodness.

grip thread size question.

does it use 8-32 and 1/4" like dm4/5s? just noticed they weren't a rounded cap head in the pic and thought it may be different

Nope, #6-32 countersunk head cap screws.

Alright, I'll look for a chromer, but I make no promises. (I've been on this hunt for years now, and still no luck. Good platers are harder to find that good anodizers)

Yeah for the same reason there arent any new refineries in the US in 30 years. Thank you EPA.
There was a really good chrome guy in Newark NJ that we used to send custom car and bike parts to. They did great work. I went looking for them about a year ago only to find out they closed. I havent had any luck finding a new guy either.

Big, let me dig around for some contact info.
Just had a set of headlamps and a radiator shroud done. Turned out great
I think the guy is outside of Camden though

[CoolHand]

Even a point in the general direction would be appreciated.

Chrome is very popular, but I fear that two or three parts at a time it will be hellaciously expensive.

[DaveSM]

If you can't find any plater then there would be another option instead (re-anodize the body another color after you installed the eyes).

check with people that restore cars. they have to have a connection.

is there going to be a SN on the frames?

[CoolHand]

is there going to be a SN on the frames?

I hadn't planned on it.

Serial Numbers are a PITA, as each frame has to be treated differently, and either laser engraved separately, or the SN needs to be machined into the frame. Newer machining centers can automatically generate the SN's, but alas, mine is far too old for that, and I did not have them added when the frames were manufactured, so we're pretty much SOL.

Its not like there will be so many that I won't be able to keep track of them. Plus, since my stuff is warrantied for a life time, there is no need to keep track of when it was sold, as its always under warranty.

Besides.
The first frame is mine anyway.
